That’s right. A dissection club!

Biology 12 students, feel free to contact me about this incredible opportunity!!

You would lead a maximum of 12 students (mostly 8’s) through some interesting/simple dissections, perhaps 8 times this year, once a month, Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar April May. Tuesdays after school. For an hour (3:13 to 4:13 pm including clean up time).

Chances are, if you’re reading this blog, you would be perfect to be a part of or even lead the CANADIAN BLOOD SERVICES CLUB at John Oliver!

That’s right! YOU could be the person who organizes a blood drive, where senior students get taxi’d to VGH to give blood in Term 3 of this year!

And we’ll have our awesome faces in the yearbook too 🙂 Contact Mr S, most of the material for Club Day in the Caf are READY TO GO, you just need to come by and chat with Mr S about stuff!

Note: Disregard the labs’ instruction to “reverse roles” and only measure data from ONE person in your group.

This blog is for my students and parents who want to keep up with homework and project deadlines. Please bookmark this blog and come back often to see what is due. The definitive list is in my classroom, on the whiteboard, and the students know when absent, they are to contact their STUDY BUDDY for everything they’ve missed.

Thanks! Have a great year!

Another teacher put together a review based on past provincials and included an answer key.
